Depends how you frame the charge, I suppose in theory someone might try section 69 of the Army Act but in all truthfulness I could never envisage the sad **** individual who would even try to make any charge like that stick. After all anything said about Blair would probably be the truth

I think diparaging remarks against Tony Blair are OK, because we are all voters and british citizens, however I think if we were to tell HRH to take her face for a sh1t then we'd definately be up for some sort of reprimand.
Figuratively speaking of course.

Yep, Proximo hit it exactly on the head Phil. The nearest we have is Section 69 as Baldrick said: 'Conduct (or Neglect) to the prejudice of Good Order and Military Discipline.' We don't have to like politicians, 'cos none of them are our C in C. In real barrack-room lawyer speak, they may not like what we say or do, but have to prove whether it prejudices either Good Order or Military Discipline.
